From Us to You!

Seasons Greetings from Jana & Friends:

James says: "BEWARE! Monkeys are taking over the world!"

Mama de James says: "The ninja monkeys are after James! No, seriously, Merry Christmas. He came to die for us!" (I think she was saying that about Jesus BTW, not the ninja monkeys or James. )

Kim says: "I'm not crazy, the voices told me so."

Jana says: Christmas day is finally over. The presents have been unwrapped, the leftovers divided up, and the company has gone home. I have so so so much to tell you all about today. I got to see "my daughter", M, on Christmas Eve, after not seeing her for a year. She adopted James and I a few years ago, and I really do love her (and worry about her) like an adopted child. That was so precious to me. The holiday with James and his family on Christmas Eve was amazing... they were BEYOND sweet to me. I fit right in, being teased by "Uncle Norman" and listening to "the aunts" lecture James about various things. *giggle* I learned that "the aunts" are both amazing artists, and where they take lessons each month, and was invited to their New Years Eve party, where they will be playing EUCHRE!!!!!!! (I love Euchre!) I also got to see MY cousin, who their family adopted because to be honest, our dads both suck. I hadn't chatted with her in AGES and hadn't ever got to talk to her daughter before, who evidently is a mini-me (well, maybe not, since she IS my height already lol) Today we all had a great time too. "Mama de James" and I had fun discussing our favorite series of books (Amelia Peabody mystery series by Elizabeth Peters), Kim and I made strange artistic creations (way fun!), I lost at Phase 10 and Electronic Sorry, but Kim & I won at Taboo... and since Kim has a little boy who is 4, I had an excuse to try out the NEW PLAYDOH SET I bought for "my Thursday-night kids." After the company was gone, we got into jammies (i got new jammies for christmas! yeah!) and watched a movie (Freedomland, which BTW has got to be THE STUPIDEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER WATCHED!!!!!). Now it's 2:45 AM and I still have a bedroom to clean so that tomorrow can officially be a day of fun for me... the last free day I'll have in quite a while, with tax season approaching. Then it's off to bed... nighty night to me!

May your days be merry and bright! Thanks for all your energy and persistance in blogging - and truthfulness. Things to aim for.

We played balance penguins...a new game. after "Happy Feet."

Family days are so cool. May you have many more in the coming year!
